U.S.A could take over the world if they wanted to. Could they???

With all the "So called underground bases" the weapondry, the military spending. Why does any other nation bother in fighting america? how could
they win. Imagine the weapons the US will release when a major war happens. no nation even spends 1/6th the amount America does. The wepons they
have must be unimagineable. If Dulce, or other bases exist and the stuff thats happening down there is really real it would even be more terrifying.
Could Russia even compete with the U.S.A??? Could all of Europe even compete with them?

You get all the problems. The US has enough problems. Not to mention paying to fix all he problems.. cough, were already hemorrhaging money into the
sand in Iraq and Afghanistan..... money I believe could be well spent here at home.

Yeah, they probably could. But there is the rub. Ever played a game of Risk? You take over one country after another and as you move from country
to country, you have to leave a little bit of your forces behind to maintain control. If you spread yourself too thin, you leave yourself vulnerable
to attack and losing control of a country.

So yeah, we could probably take over everyone (except China, perhaps), but we could never *maintain* control.

Yeah, unless you kill EVERYONE... and let's be honest... The USA is about the only damned country that actually TRIES to limit civilian casualties
so... NO. Our mission (in my opinion) is to keep all the rest of the loons from killing themselves (and us in the process). So three cheers for having
to be the planets freeking peacekeeper... a thankless job and a very expensive one.

Yes, we unquestionably could take the world. no doubt. The thing that makes America what it is, is, we dont. Were the first nation in history that
has the capability to do this, and yet, it goes against our foundation and our principles. I know I'll catch heat for this but is it really
arrogance when its truth?

I spent the last hour and a half writing a post I was thinking I would be very proud of, I imagined the applause I would get from a mod, someone like
semper fortis or someone with like minded experience and I hit the refresh button and re-read the op again and the title and I don't know what I was
thinking or if I miss read it but now,, after reading that title I only have two words for you.

WHO CARES!

Obviously I do I wanted to hear some intellectual conversations about this. Had some good posts but posts like the one you just wrote... Whats the
point in sharing your opinion if you dont care about the question?? To tell me u dont care about my question on the thread? Then dont post on
